Currently there are 3 broad ways proposed for standardization.
Calorie and Quantity are standardized separately (I believe this is the current practice and what is outlined in the orange bible and the documentation from Maarten Van't Riet)
Standardize quantity then compute the calorie based on calorie conversion factor.
Standardize by calories then compute the quantity based on the reciprocal of the calorie conversion factor.
Essentially method 2 and 3 are the same in the sense that the relationship between calorie and quantity are consistent with the calorie conversion factor as oppose to the current methodology. However, the difference lies in which one we standardize first then convert to obtain the counter part.
